Strange thing is that you could achieve the same thing in Obsidian just as easily.

Roam Research valued at $200m in a fund raise where it took $9m outside investment.

You have to remember that no-one actually thinks it's worth $200m.
You have a group of investors placing a $9m bet that it will actually be worth a lot more. With Roam's owners trying to give away as little as possible in exchange for circa $10 m.
The key to the price was the success of the believers scheme and $15 a month subscription.
What happens next will depend on how successfully Roam deploy the money.
First steps seem to be teams (collaborations) and an API.

Agreed. They don't release their revenue statements, the standard valuation of a company is 4 times revenue, and they aren't making $50m a year.
